[c-nsp] ASA and SNMP

[Alasdair Gow]

Is it being caught by threat detection?

Anything in the logs?

does it happen at a regular time each period? do you use asdm? if so is 
it possible to have it logged in at the time and see what's happening 
with cpu/memory/live logs?

with snmp being udp, is it possible the packets are getting 
lost/dropped? what does a trace route say at the time? are you ping 
monitoring at the same time? does this fail at the same time as snmp?

Cheers,
Alasdair
